Happy New Year!


AS 2007 comes to a close, I have been reminiscing about the last year... I have had a ton of changes in my life and the life of the sims...

I decided 2008 was going to be a good year! Im deciding in my own mind and making sure it is all good! One of the things I think we need to keep in mind is not to do the woulda, coulda, shoulda thing, do the "this is what i'm doing and I have decided what is good for ME" People have a big influence on how I think because I always have worried about what others think. 2008 is the year for me to take hold of what I WANT and what is good for me. Some will not like it others will be taken back and others will say go for what you want.


ANYWAY ....HAPPY NEW YEAR and have a drink for me :)


Funny New Year Quotes

Collection of funny new year quotes about the new Year


- Mark Twain
New Year's is a harmless annual institution, of no particular use to anybody save as a scapegoat for promiscuous drunks, and friendly calls and humbug resolutions.

Brooks Atkinson
Drop the last year into the silent limbo of the past. Let it go, for it was imperfect, and thank God that it can go.

- Bill Vaughan
Youth is when you're allowed to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Middle age is when you're forced to.

- P. J. O'Rourke
The proper behavior all through the holiday season is to be drunk. This drunkenness culminates on New Year's Eve, when you get so drunk you kiss the person you're married to.

Jay Leno
Now there are more overweight people in America than average-weight people. So overweight people are now average… which means, you have met your New Year's resolution.

James Agate
New Year's Resolution: To tolerate fools more gladly, provided this does not encourage them to take up more of my time.

Eric Zorn
Making resolutions is a cleansing ritual of self assessment and repentance that demands personal honesty and, ultimately, reinforces humility. Breaking them is part of the cycle.

Bill Vaughan
An optimist stays up until midnight to see the New Year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.

Charles Lamb
New Year's Day is every man's birthday.

Mark Twain
New Year's Day… now is the accepted time to make your regular annual good resolutions. Next week you can begin paving hell with them as usual.

Judith Crist
Happiness is too many things these days for anyone to wish it on anyone lightly. So let's just wish each other a bile-less New Year and leave it at that.

Anonymous
Many people look forward to the New Year for a new start on old habits.

Joey Adams
May all your troubles last as long as your New Year's resolutions!

Anais Nin
I made no resolutions for the New Year. The habit of making plans, of criticizing, sanctioning and molding my life, is too much of a daily event for me.

Oscar Wilde
Good resolutions are simply checks that men draw on a bank where they have no account.

Robert Paul
I'm a little bit older, a little bit wiser, a little bit rounder, but still none the wiser.

Anonymous
A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one Year and out the other.

Leonard Bernstein
From New Year's on the outlook brightens; good humor lost in a mood of failure returns. I resolve to stop complaining.

G. K. Chesterton
The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose; new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes. Unless a particular man made New Year resolutions, he would make no resolutions. Unless a man starts afresh about things, he will certainly do nothing effective. Unless a man starts on the strange assumption that he has never existed before, it is quite certain that he will never exist afterwards. Unless a man be born again, he shall by no means enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.

SO HAPPY!!!


Well the last 24 have been as bad as the last 48...I got my new puter and its windows system was corrupted and the people at the store tried to say I ADDED the wrong driver and killed the system..I set them straight as nicely as I could...*glares like I used to give my kids* works wonders on grown men*. Being a women I swear they think we are retarded when it comes to computers, but being that I have been working with puters for over 20 years, I prolly could do their job!
This is just a funny picture I found.

Anyway, after the glare down and demand for a new unit, I am home and happy and all is going well. I should be on for a little while today and answer all my IM's and pressing business stuff. Please Please be patient and I will get to every one!

Here are the rules:
(1) Each player starts with answering the questions about themselves.
(2) People who are tagged need to write a post on their own blog (answering same questions) and post these rules.
(3) At the end of your blog, you need to choose five (ha! I so changed it) people to get tagged and list their names.
(4) Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

1. Are you and early shopper or a late shopper?

LATE...When my children were little I would not let them make lists. I didn't want my kids to have that entitlement and greed at Christmas. I feel like the gift needs to come from the heart and the person that is buying the gift should have to really put their heart into it. NOW that my kids are 18 and 21, when I say, what would you like for Christmas, they say ..."Oh Mom, anything is fine" lol that will show me !!

2. What is your favorite cartoon (current or passed)?

The Jetson's, ohhh I want a Rosie maid for Christmas

3. On a scale of 1-10, how competent are you on home repair projects?

I am extremely mechanically inclined so there isn't much that is basic that I can't fix.


4. What is your favorite holiday tradition?

My favorite holiday tradition is Christmas and being with my family. I live 600 miles away from my family and try to make sure Christmas is one that we can all be together!

5. Describe your favorite kiss? Do you give it or receive it?

My favorite kiss was my first kiss in SL and RL...and I received it

Bonus (as in optional):What is the best holiday gift you have ever gotten?

Best Holiday Gift has to be Nintendo!! That started my addiction! yahoooooo

the best gift I ever gave?

Best gift I ever gave was something that I made for my family. I made a name plaque with their hobbies intertwined it in.

Tagging...everyone I know blogs has been tagged...TBD...HA

As much as I hate snow and ice, this place is just beautiful, although it makes me cold to look at it has great things all around. Cute little snowmen skating, ice gazebo's and ice skating poseballs.

Lots of area's to cuddle in, lots of deer and animals running through the forest..It's just beautiful
